Wed. Word: Feb. 11
As we prepare to move into the season of Lent (starting on Ash Wednesday, next week), I keep thinking about the need for community and for communities of faith to model stability and welcome, especially in times where chaos and violence are acutely felt. I posted this today on Substack – the 3rd of a 5-part series:
If we’re not cut flowers (see parts 1 and 2) - alone or together - we’re rooted somehow. Today’s image is just one way of being alive. I identify with it quite a bit, especially as it captures the kind of beauty and connection found in our little community. But there are other ways of being rooted that call to me, as well.
